maybe supporting IE6 would be a good metaphor: you could say that you

Johannes, is this what you had in mind?
Thanks, I like your analogy and don't have a better one.
That is exactly the problem - *nobody* says "we support every browser
equally" and most sites/applications explicitly say "we do not support
IE6" and every bug on IE6 is rejected unless it happens in some other
place. If you plan to give libmysql the same treatment it means removing
support for it, plain and simple. If you mean something else, please
explain.
